Chapter 778 - : Became braver today (1/2)
Ren Xiaosu did not know what this “therapy” was about. He just felt the Wang Consortium’s methods were too overbearing.
Ren Xiaosu felt it was only natural that there were people in the world who did not like doing things they were good at. For example, Qing Zhen often said he did not like wars, but he was good at resolving them. For example, even though Zhang Baogen was a supernatural being, he felt that his calling was to bring joy to children living in the orphanage.
Even though Zhang Baogen’s saliva bubble power had become extremely powerful, and even though it smelled like celery, everyone should be able to make their own choices.
Alright, maybe having such choices and preferences was insignificant in your Wang Consortium’s stronghold.
But what subtle impression would you give to those people by putting them in therapy? “If you think that you don’t like your current job, that’s because there’s something wrong with your mentality, so you need therapy.”
You would be implying that they were in the wrong, so we, the Wang Consortium, would help you to get back on track by giving you therapy.
Ren Xiaosu could not agree with this method. For example, if someone were to say to him, “Ren Xiaosu, since you’re so good at killing people, you should help everyone kill people.”
Ren Xiaosu would definitely smash that person’s head in.
Moreover, at this moment, Ren Xiaosu felt that the word “therapy” had suddenly become a very taboo word in the stronghold. This was something he found difficult to accept.
He could even imagine that if a very stubborn person were to suddenly appear in this stronghold and was not willing to do the job that was assigned to him by the artificial intelligence, that person might just end up getting “counseled” endlessly.
What a horrifying feeling this was.
It was no wonder the stronghold residents would subconsciously lower their heads when they saw the Wang Consortium’s vehicle.
Ren Xiaosu did not make any further comments on this matter. He was not the savior of the world, nor did he have any better or more reasonable suggestions. He only wanted to fulfill his promises quickly and leave this place.
The off-road vehicle drove for nearly 40 minutes as Ren Xiaosu silently mapped out the route in his mind.
When he was here with Zhou Yingxue the previous time, he had memorized the map of Stronghold 61. Although he did not have a photographic memory like Wang Yun, he could still roughly memorize it.
At this moment, the female celebrity, Li Ran, who was walking out of a villa on the side of the road, was taken aback when she saw the off-road vehicle driving past her.
Her new assistant, who was standing beside her, asked, “Ranran, what’s the matter?”
Li Ran looked in the direction of the departed off-road vehicle. “I think I saw someone familiar, an acquaintance.”
Li Ran had already been living in Stronghold 61. She was rescued by Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue during the creeper vine crisis. Later, she came back after the stronghold was rebuilt. After all, she would have some feelings for the place where she grew up.
When Li Ran saw Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin sitting inside the Wang Consortium’s vehicle, she felt a little jealous for some reason.
She used to look down on Ren Xiaosu. But later, she realized she was unable to understand the world he was living in.
The assistant turned to look at Li Ran. “Is it just an acquaintance?”
“Mhm.” Li Ran calmed herself down and replied, “Come on, let’s head to the event.”
The assistant had some thoughts about this. Judging by Li Ran’s disappointed expression, it was apparent that the person was no ordinary acquaintance.
The off-road vehicle stopped at a quiet street after driving down the avenue. When Wang Run got out of the vehicle, he said to Ren Xiaosu, “We’ve arranged these two courtyard houses as your accommodation. This is specifically where our Wang Consortium receives our distinguished guests.”
Ren Xiaosu had a look at the two courtyard houses. They were not big, but they stood secluded and elegant.
